Speaking to iFL TV, he said, “I could see Anthony Joshua knocking out Tyson Fury. I could see that happening. Because you look at a fighter like Tyson Fury, he does some things similar to me defensively that was able to get away from Wilder, which is to stay away from one or two big shots.”

Molina drew comparisons significant comparisons between Deontay Wilder and Joshua. He asserted that Wilder landed huge shots by spreading his lead hand. And if the opponent is just not moving and covering it up, he’ll unquestionably suffer a knockdown. But that said, Wilder’s punches allow the opponents to move and dodge the shots which Fury did throughout against the Alabama native.
Talking about Joshua, Molina said, “What Joshua does, Joshua don’t give you that boom. He’s very fluid with his punches. He comes with three, four, five, maybe even a six.”
Molina backed Joshua over the ‘Gypsy King’ for the prolific competency he showcased. He believed ‘AJ’ doesn’t give much time to his opponents and hence would walk out as the undisputed heavyweight champion.
